PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE .
Many of the systems and applications programs used today are proprietary software. This means that someone owns the rights to the program, and the owner expects users to buy their own copies. Microsoft Office is a typical example. If you want to acquire this software to write letters or produce graphics, you must purchase a registered copy in a store, through a mail order house, or over the internet. In buying the software, you pay not to own it, but to acquire a license that makes you an authorized user. Organizations such as businesses and schools, which may need software for use by several people, generally acquire site licenses that allow access by multiple users.

If you buy a copy of Microsoft Office for your own use, you cannot legally make copies of it for your friends, nor can you reproduce parts of the packages 's code to build your own suite program. You cannot eve rent or lease the software to others. You have bought only the right to operate the software yourself and for its intended use creating documents. Parts of the price that you pay for the program becomes profit for the software publisher Microsoft Cooperation for its effort in bringing the product to the marketplace.

ICT TO LEARN TO DAY ..

In computing, an operating system (OS) is a software what works as interface for the hardware and offers them to other software. OS is responsible for the management and coordination of processes and the sharing of the resources of hardware, acts as a host for computing applications running on the OS. One of the purposes of an operating system is to handle the resource allocation and access protection of the hardware. This relieves the application programmers from having to manage these details.

Operating systems offer a number of services to application programs. Applications access these services through application programming interfaces (APIs) or system calls. By invoking these interfaces, the application can request a service from the operating system, pass parameters, and receive the results of the operation. On large systems such as Unix-like systems, the user interface is always implemented as software that runs outside the operating system, some others systems like Windows, the Window manager can be part of the NT operating system itself.

While servers generally run Unix or some Unix-like operating system, embedded system markets are split amongst several operating systems,^[1][2] although the Microsoft Windows line of operating systems has almost 90% of the client PC market.
